I was a hunter in ancient times

Chapter 43 Meng Mansion

   After this day, Shen Xi would spare some time every day to come to Zhou Du's house to help tidy up.

Zhou Du's house also became clean and tidy day by day.

The changed clothes will no longer pile up into mountains, the tea in the teapot will be replaced with new ones every day, and even the muddy walls have been carefully covered with oilcloth to prevent the clothes from being stained.

Shen Xi was wearing his own homemade apron, with his sleeves rolled up and his waist down, looking at the room he had completely refurbished, he couldn't help smiling and said: "You're done!"

Zhou Du looked up at the room that Shen Xi had tidied up more than before The room was much brighter, and he felt relieved, and he rarely praised: "Not bad."

Hearing Zhou Du's praise, the smile on Shen Xi's face became even wider, and then he gradually calmed down again, and slowly put down the rolled-up sleeves , sighed and said: "It's a pity that no matter how well you tidy it up, it's not your own house, so you can barely live in it now."

Zhou Du raised his eyebrows slightly, suddenly remembered the things Chen Qingshan sent last time, and went around the house Finally, he stepped over to take it out, handed it to Shen Xi and said, "Help me see where this location is." When

Chen Qingshan came to give him the land deed, he mentioned that it was bought near Shen Xi's house, but Shen Xi The vicinity of Xi's house is all nearby, how could Zhou Du know the exact location.

Shen Xi took Zhou Du's land deed sticker with some surprise: "Your land deed has been approved?"

Zhou Du nodded: "Yeah."

Shen Xi opened the land deed sticker to look at the location, and opened his lips slightly, even more surprised Different way: "Isn't this next to my house?"

Zhou Du asked again: "Where is next to it?"

Shen Xi read the location carefully again: "One mu of land to the east of Songshan Forest in Taoyuan Village."

"It's outside my kitchen, where you picked up the pine tower last time." Shen Xi closed the land deed sticker, looked up at Zhou Du, and said with a slightly complicated expression: "You didn't deliberately buy the house in my kitchen for the convenience of eating. The more Shen Xi thinks about it, the more reasonable it becomes

, Zhou Du is so lazy that he doesn't even bother to get up to eat breakfast, sometimes he sleeps until the sun is up, if he didn't bring the meal over, he would even be so lazy that he wouldn't even eat lunch .

"Of course not," Zhou Du took back the land deed in his hand, and vetoed it, "The village head helped to set up the house, and I didn't interfere."

Shen Xi doubted; "Really?"

Zhou Du affirmed: "Yes."

Chen Qingshan It's for the convenience of his meal, and it's not for the convenience of Zhou Du's meal, why not.

Shen Xi agreed with doubts, and immediately became happy again: "If you bought the house, you can repair the house."

Zhou Du looked at him, and said slowly: "The last time I sold the geese, there were still twenty taels left. Buying the house is still a lot. There are eight taels left, and other odds and ends. Is it enough to build a house?"

Shen Xi suddenly opened his eyes wide when he heard Zhou Du's reported family fortune to him, "Of course it's enough, your money In our village, you can be ranked among the wealthy families, let alone building a house."

Shen Xi pointed to Zhou Du's house and said, "If you build such an earthen house, you only need two or three taels of silver. , if you think of a brick and tile house, it's almost as expensive as seven or eight taels of silver."

Zhou Du interrupted him directly: "If you think of a house like yours, how much do you need?"

"My house?" Shen Xi didn't expect Zhou Du Duhui fell in love with his wooden house, thought for a while, and said kindly: "My house is just for looking good, but it is not practical. There are many insects and snakes in Sichuan, and my wooden house can be used at most a dozen times." Years, usually have to be carefully maintained."

Shen Xi felt that a lazy person like Zhou Du should build a house made entirely of stone, preferably without windows, so as not to waste time closing the windows.

Zhou Du became a little impatient: "How much."

Shen Xi estimated the price of building his own house: "Including the money to buy the red pine, it will cost about one or twenty taels. To build it, you need to hire a carpenter, and the cost of a carpenter's day is not low."

Zhou Du knew it well.

After Shen Xi finished speaking, he was surprised: "Do you really want to build a house like my house?"

Zhou Du saw that his lips were dry, and offered to pour him a glass of water: "Why not?"

Shen Xi took Zhou Du's hand. The water that Du poured for him obviously didn't add anything in it, and there were even a few pieces of bitter tea leaves, but he couldn't taste the bitterness, instead he felt it was sweet: "I just don't think it's worth it, we're building a house I was still young at that time, and my uncle took a bunch of drawings and asked me which one I like, and I would naturally choose the one that looks better. You are different, you are not a child, you can choose a durable house, and the rest of the money You can save it and do something else."

"It's fine if you think it looks good," Zhou Du didn't care, "After all, I have a lot of money."

Before hearing the second half of Zhou Du's words, Shen Xi felt a little turmoil in his heart, However, as soon as he spoke the words behind, the little magpie in Shen Xi's heart that was about to take off suddenly turned around and fell to the ground.

For a poor ghost like Shen Xi who has no money and a lot of debts, Zhou Du's words don't hurt much, but they are extremely insulting.

When the two were relatively silent in the house, an urgent voice came from outside the house: "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, are you there?"

Shenxi heard Li Yu's voice, and quickly poured Zhou Du to him the cup that he couldn't bear to drink After drinking the finished water in one gulp, he put down the glass and walked out: "Here."



Li Yu stepped forward to hold Shen Xi's hand: " Hurry up and go home, someone is coming from your house." He broke free from his hand, turned around and said to Zhou Du who followed him, "Maybe someone from the town is here, I'll go back first."

Zhou Du's gaze paused for a moment on the hand he had pulled out of Li Yu's hand, and then nodded slightly .

Shen Xi waited until Zhou Du nodded before rushing home with Li Yu.

As expected, it was someone from the town, but it was Butler Zhao himself.

Shen Xi saw Zhao Rong coming out of the carriage, and said in surprise: "Housekeeper Zhao, why are you here?"

When Zhao Rong saw Shen Xi, he smiled all over his face: "Of course I came to pick you up to the town, you clean it up. " Clean it up, let's go now."

Shen Xi nodded: "Okay, I'll go tell my family."

After speaking, he dragged Li Yu into the kitchen to clean up his set of eating utensils.

Li Yu asked him: "Xiaoxi, you took on the job in the town again."

Shen Xi replied while tidying up: "I owe Zhoudu so much money, if I don't take on the job, when will I pay it off?"

Li Yu Without saying anything, he helped him pick up a few knives and put them into the knife box, and asked: "Go for a few days, so I can go back and pack my clothes."

Shen Xi quickly shook his head: "No, you can learn medical skills from your little uncle at home ." , Zhou Du said he would accompany me."

Li Yu was a little surprised: "Is he so nice?"

Although Zhou Du ate at Shen's house every day, Li Yu didn't have much contact with him. He always felt that Zhou Du was not easy to get along with, and sometimes he would ignore him when talking to him. It's boring. This time I was quite surprised to hear that he was willing to take the initiative to accompany Shen Xi to the town.

Shen Xi packed the cooking knife and other things, and said righteously for Zhou Du: "Of course, don't think that Zhou Du doesn't like to talk to people, but he is good. Last time I went to town with me. He also took good care of me. The village asked him to hunt wild boars, and he didn't delay. He didn't even have a house, ten taels of silver. Other than the sound, it's really good, no, it's really good!"

While packing up his things, Shen Xi said a lot of good things about Zhou Du, as if Zhou Du had no shortcomings.

Li Yu gradually felt that something was wrong, and swallowed: "Xiaoxi, could you be..." Like him.

But when he thought about Shen Xi's blind date with a girl some time ago, and felt that it was impossible, his head would be a little confused for a while.

Shen Xi packed up his things and carried them on his back one by one. He didn't hear what Li Yu asked, and he went out of the kitchen and said, "I'll go say hello to my little uncle, and then I'll leave. My family and my little uncle will ask Xiaoyu Son, you can take care of me."

Li Yu repeatedly replied: "Hey, don't worry."

Shen Xi said to Shen Mu, and after listening to him nagging for a long time, he stepped into Butler Zhao's carriage, Go to Zhou Du's house to pick up Zhou Du.

After Zhou Du got into the car, he saw Zhao Rong winking at him.

The atmosphere in the carriage was a bit strange.

Zhou Du touched his face unnaturally. Could it be that his current charm is so great that he can attract people of this age?

Zhou Du opened his lips, and was about to speak when Shen Xi who was beside him squeezed him with his shoulder, and he had to move away.

Shen Xi sat in Zhoudu's seat, looked directly at Zhao Rong and said, "Steward Zhao, what are the preferences and requirements of the distinguished guests in your house for this wedding banquet?"

Zhao Rong returned to his senses, and said seriously: "Our guest It's a bit weird, sometimes it's easy to serve, and sometimes it's really hard to serve, but he didn't ask for anything at this wedding banquet, just asked for one word, okay, in short, you just try to show your best skills."

Shen Xi listened carefully, discussing with Zhao Rong from time to time.

After listening to a few words, Zhou Du became sleepy, leaning against the wall of the carriage, and gently closed his eyes.

When he woke up again, the carriage had already arrived in the town, and it was still early in the sky, Zhou Du couldn't help feeling that the speed of this carriage was different from that of an ox cart.

The carriage did not drive towards the Zhao Mansion, but stopped in front of a mansion that looked very new.

Zhao Rong smiled and said to them: "This is the mansion of the noble son in our mansion. His family was busy with renovations some time ago, so he stayed in Zhao's mansion. Now that the renovation is completed, he moved back to his mansion. "

Zhou Du glanced at the plaque hanging in front of the door: Meng Mansion.

"The guest's surname is Meng, and the single name is Sui. You can call him Mr. Meng." Zhao Rong noticed Zhou Du looking at the plaque, and said with a smile.

Zhou Du nodded.

"This is the front door. I brought you here to find out the way. Now let's enter through the back door. I have already sent someone to clean up your room in Meng's mansion. It's getting late today. Let's rest for the night and see Meng Meng tomorrow." The young master will send someone to explain the situation to you."

Zhao Rong led them into the Meng Mansion from the back, and after familiarizing themselves with the kitchen of the Meng Mansion, he led them to the bedroom.

Meng Mansion has just been refurbished, all the appliances are new, Shen Xi and Zhou Du are quite satisfied. Exiting this room, Shen Xi naturally walked to the side room: "Is the other room like this?"

He remembered that when they were in the Zhao Mansion, the room furnishings were similar, so the Meng Mansion should be quite similar to the Zhao Mansion.

"What other room?" Zhao Rong was startled when he heard Shen Xi's question, and then stopped when he saw Shen Xi's movement, "This room belongs to someone else, I only prepared one for you, what's the problem?" ?"

Zhao Rong remembered that they only slept in one room in the Zhao Mansion, and they had to spare one of the two rooms, so this arrangement was made.

One room...

Chen Xi looked towards Zhou Du, saw that Zhou Du was still looking at the room, and didn't notice their side, and immediately replied: "No problem."

After seeing Butler Zhao away, Shen Xi calmed down a little, and turned towards Zhou Du. Du said: "Steward Zhao said that the Meng Mansion has just been refurbished not long ago, and the other rooms are not suitable for people. Let the two of us squeeze together first, you see..."

Zhou Du saw that Shen Xi's speech was a little unnatural, and he was frightened, but he didn't. Suspecting something, he nodded and said: "Okay."

Shen Xi immediately became happy: "Then I will clean up first, and I will get some food later."

Zhou Du doesn't have to do anything, just sit and wait for food , naturally there is no objection.

Meng Sui's father is a county magistrate, and now he is an official in another place, and he will not be able to come back for a while, so he is the only one who comes back to get married, so that he can take his new wife to other places together.

Therefore, there were only a few servants of the Meng Mansion who stayed behind to watch the house, and the whole Meng Mansion seemed quiet, and Zhou Du and Shen Xi, who were newcomers, were not to be disturbed, and after dinner, they were ready to rest.

Zhou Du lit a few lamps in the four corners of the room, and when he turned around, he saw Shen Xi sitting by the bed, slowly undressing.

As soon as he untied the belt of his coat, the snow-white undershirt underneath also slipped down, revealing half of his fair and delicate shoulders, and under the shoulders there was a faintly visible piece of delicate skin.

Zhou Du was stunned for a moment, then walked over.

Shen Xi looked at Zhou Du's approaching figure, his whole heart was beating non-stop, and even his body trembled slightly because of excitement.

Zhou Du stretched out his hand, bent slightly, and slowly stroked the clothes that had slipped off one shoulder of Shen Xi.

Shen Xi's entire face was flushed with excitement, and he didn't know what he was looking forward to.

The next moment, Zhou Du dragged his clothes back to his shoulders and dressed him neatly: "It's so cold that you're shivering, so don't take it off, I don't dislike you sleeping with me with your clothes on."

Shen Xi: "? ?????????"
